Here’s part 1:
https://gamergrrlsofficial.blogspot.com/2022/02/erin-plays-and-mike-matei-try-out.html
I left off at 30:00.
31:30 – Erin yawns and Mike looks at her. She wants nothing to do with this. Plus, apparently, they were streaming this in the middle of the night.
Mike gave Erin the controller after noticing her yawn. Now Erin is in a town and she keeps trying to kill the townspeople. She’s been doing this since the game started. At first, I figured, “Okay, she doesn’t know that these aren’t enemies. She’s never played this before, of course. Maybe she’s just trying to see if they talk if you press a certain button. Fine.” But she still hasn’t figured this out?
52:15 – Mike says that the game reminds him of Castlevania and asks Erin if she’s familiar with the game. She says that she is. Mike suggests that it’s an obscure game that only he knows. Erin says that it’s a “hidden gem”, which is a surprising actual joke from Erin.
But then she ruins it by saying, “That, my friends, is called sarcasm.” Like we’re too fucking stupid to realise this. Even the horntards all got it.
By the way, I haven’t been leaving many comments because Erin hasn’t said anything too embarrassing and she’s surprisingly semi-competent at the game. She even seems to know how the map works. Dare I say that this video is watchable. I’m actually being entertained here.
53:45 – “I just had a vision of the future. She said she’s never played it, but I’ve seen her play Castlevania.”
She’s still on this. Who is she talking about? I obviously wouldn’t say that and the horntards can’t possibly be this stupid.
1:05:30 – Shout out to Shishi. He’s even there in the middle of the fucking night.
1:17:30 – Erin has been trying to find a particular area in the game in order to do a quest for at least the past 45 minutes. Mike keeps telling her that it doesn’t matter and to just keep wandering around.
I have to say that Erin is right on this. Figure out where that fucking barn is. You know it can’t be in the current area because you just entered a different town or whatever.
1:25:00 – Erin gives up because of her fake carpal tunnel syndrome.
1:25:30 – Mike says, “As you guys know, Erin has been having carpal tunnel…ummm….problems.”
He’s nearly laughing. So is Erin. Everybody knows that this is a giant lie.
1:27:45 – “Should I go get my ice pack and sit here.”
This is brutal. This is a fucking scam. There’s nothing wrong with her hands and/or wrists.
Oh my god. She’s actually getting it.
1:28:45 – Yeah. She’s strapping something on to her wrist. This is fucking ridiculous. Just turn the stream off and do something with your life. This is fucking idiotic.
1:32:30 – They’ve been arguing about saving the game for the past ten minutes or so. Erin completed a quest by beating some mini-boss on a bridge but didn’t save and then she died. So they have to repeat that little quest again. Erin doesn’t know what they’re talking about and Mike is getting really annoyed because he doesn’t have a clue what’s going on and why the chat keeps mentioning that they didn’t save. “I just saved. Why do they keep telling me to save” and whatnot. So Erin gets annoyed at Mike because she’s just relaying what the chat is saying and Mike isn’t getting it.
1:33:00 – Then just by chance, they’re on this bridge again and can do this quest.
1:34:00 – Mike beats this mini-boss and the quest updates, telling him to go back to some town. Erin says, “There’s a save to the right” and Mike just repeats what the quest told him to do. So Erin just rolls her eyes and gives up.
But again, she’s right. They should just fucking save first. This is what the chat has been talking about.
It’s a sad day when Erin knows more about video games than Mike. She’s sitting there with an ice pack on her wrist, tending to her fake carpal syndrome, and she knows more about the basic mechanics of video games than Mike does.
1:36:00 – Mike got back to this area to finish the quest but he’s not saving. The chat must be going mental.
Then Mike starts complaining because after you complete a quest, you have to go back to the person who gave you the quest to get your reward. He suggests that the person who gave the quest should come to you to give the reward.
Erin, rightly, points out that the person giving the quest can’t leave the town because they’re not equipped to deal with all of the monsters that inhabit the world. Mike agrees but complains about “backtracking.”
This is the fucking game. This is a basic mechanic of RPGs. How can he not know this? And why is Erin schooling him on the logic to all of this?
1:37:15 – Mike says, “I don’t know what a mini-quest is” and then Erin explains it to him.
What the fuck is going on? Is he just too sleep deprived? Maybe get a job, Mike. Get a job and do this shit in your spare time. Get a normal sleep schedule. This is not healthy. He’s been unemployed and sleeping whenever he wants for over ten years. It messes you up.
Then Erin takes the controller from Mike and immediately goes to the save spot while Mike babbles about not knowing what’s going on.
This is unbelievable. This is the Bizarro stream. Erin is the one who knows what she’s doing and Mike is the fucking idiot.
1:43:00 – Mike told a story about how he saw a Judas Priest concert with James but didn’t know who the band was. So Erin is telling Mike all about Judas Priest. Then she suggests that they should go to a concert together. She’s not talking specifically about Judas Priest, she’s talking about any concert.
Why is this not something that they’ve done before? The only things that Erin has any interest in are Disney and 1990s pop music. She’s gone to Disneyland and Disney World dozens of times since she got with Mike. Why no 1990s pop music shit?
There was some concert that Erin mentioned on Twitter recently. It was a bunch of gay 2000s boybands and shit. Why didn’t they go to that?
I know that this is a sugardaddy situation but can it really just be about the buttsex? Doesn’t he get bored of that? Fucking do something. At some point, she’s going to decide that Joe from Gamesack would make a better sugardaddy.
So that’s the stream. I wouldn’t say that the two hours flew by but it was it was a lot more enjoyable than most of the complete trash that Erin produces.
